[03:51] d_venom, yes [03:51] holycow: how old are you by the way ;-) [03:51] JanKok5, say what? indeed no [03:52] freemind, add the line vga=ask to your kernel command line in /boot/grub/menu.lst, and choose the 80x25 resolution. that should at least get your consoles.

[04:47] that would be the right reason to do so indeed :) [04:47] harisund, you don't need to appologise for compiling the kernel. many people don't understand that it is often necessary, but you can't worry about that. [04:47] just use a vanilla kernel :-) [04:47] what seth said [04:47] harisund, also, that the modular nature of the kernel is good for the distro people, but bad for the end user [04:47] well thats wrong [04:48] sethk, hehe.. not apologizing.. the thing is I knew Ubuntu was meant to be for new users, but didn't think the support channel would be so discouraging to someone who knew what they were doing :( .. t [04:48] its actually GREAT for users [04:48] what's so bad about it for end users? [04:48] harisund, by the way, Crippy-Boy may have been kidding but the first thing I do is replace it with the kernel.org kernel.

[06:08] for the past 6 months [06:08] in temple tx [06:09] for some strange reason, I can only have one app access the device at once [06:09] Please help with a problem I've encountered. When I restart my computer it hangs when it should load GRUB. I am actually running the live cd right now, is there anything I can do? [06:09] Anyone here experienced with WLAN? [06:09] do I have to reconfigure alsa for the device change? [06:09] myk3: Well, the V6800V works rather well, everything works (Haven't tested bluetooth, or firewire, or infrared, or modem), but the ati card works with the ati drivers (download from website), and the card reader also works. [06:10] if so, how do I reset the alsa config [06:10] does ubuntu do good with amd 64 x2? [06:10] myk3: Asus's windows drivers suck, ironically. [06:10] i just bought a new desktop [06:10] lol [06:10] link_36p: what's your question? === Ferret0547 [n=travis@cpe-72-183-231-110.satx.res.rr.com] has joined #Ubuntu [06:10] so can anyone help? [06:10] myk3: Infact, they suck so badly that it's faster to run windows in qemu than on the actual hardware itself, and I'm not exagerating. [06:10] wow [06:10] that does suck [06:11] well i think ill try agan tomarrow [06:11] thanks [06:11] haha [06:11] for the help === Crescendo [n=GWing@cpe-024-211-177-002.nc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu === myk3 [n=myke@cpe-24-243-58-87.satx.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu [] [06:11] harrism, does it say grub somthing and then hang? [06:11] ChocoCid: I'm not kidding. [06:11] i really should find my windows disk and set up qemu just so i can stick windows on face #4 of the cube and get rid of my windows partition entirely [06:11] ChocoCid: Using the "kqemu accellerator", mind you. === jaxadmrl [i=davutz@207-255-47-031-dhcp.jst.pa.atlanticbb.net] has joined #ubuntu [06:11] i've just never worked with virtualization before at all, so... [06:12] ChocoCid: It's not virtualization. [06:12] Well im trying to get it working on my laptop feross, i just did a fresh edgy install and there are two connections and i dont know wich is really my wifi, one is named "wifi0" and the network utility shoes packets going through it and the other is "ath0" showing no packets. I cant get a connection at all though. [06:12] w30: no, it hangs before it would usually get to that step [06:12] ChocoCid: qemu *emulates* [06:12] er, ok [06:12] :/ [06:12] vmware virtualize [06:12] +s === roduku [n=chatzill@12-217-0-57.client.mchsi.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:12] and i'm not sure which one i want, nor why i would want either over the other [06:12] I have some java projects on my disk that was not backed up either [06:12] ChocoCid: VMware is more polished. [06:12] ChocoCid: But you have to purchase it in order to use it effectively. [06:12] Feross where can i find a good guide to wifi'ing in ubuntu (ive already gone through wiki.ubuntu.com) === rga [n=ubuntu@200.138.196.3] has joined #ubuntu [06:13] ah, hrm [06:13] ChocoCid: VMware is also better on the graphics dept, but qemu + kqemu is arguably faster in other regards. [06:13] vmware server isnt bad and the serial is free with registration === Half-Left [n=Half-Lef@cpc1-mapp3-0-0-cust704.nott.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:13] well, i don't really care about graphics [06:13] link_36p: hmm, what do you see with iwconfig? [06:13] alguem fala portugus e pode me ajudar? [06:13] !pt [06:13] Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada. [06:13] ChocoCid: On the other hand, if you want true virtualization, take a look at Xen. [06:13] !xen [06:13] XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy [06:13] ooh, edgy :D [06:13] ChocoCid: Though, unless you have the specific hardware, you may have to live with mere paravirtualization. [06:13] some of my themes are broken in Edgy, any ideas? [06:13] is an actual install of ubuntu better than VMware ? === j_ack_ [n=rudi@p508DAA35.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [06:13] link_36p: don't paste here, but you should see one that says something with IEEE in it. [06:14] ChocoCid: Paravirtualization, however, requires modifications to both host and guest, and as a result, you cannot run windows as a guest. [06:14] I don't mind reinstalling, but is there a way I can get my projects off the disk first? [06:14] Unity: Ha. :) === kitche [n=dragon@sourcemage/guru/kitche] has joined #ubuntu [06:14] Do you have to register on Ubuntu Forums to use this channel? [06:14] Unity: You're joking, right? [06:15] Ferret0547 : no [06:15] nope [06:15] guy on my msn keeps on telling me to do clean install on hard disk instead of emulation im like why he's like just do it [06:15] hehe [06:15] harrism, there is two parts to grub. first part is installed in the mbr and the second part is in /boot and maybe /boot/grub. If you have nothing then you probably have lost something in the mbr and if you have loading stage 1 or something like that and then it hangs you have got the grub on the mbr looking in the wrong place for /boot/grub [06:15] feross: ya ath0 does in iwconfig its the olny one with a "wireless extention" so why doesnt it pick up any packages!!! :'( [06:15] so uh, why does xen want me to make an initrd image of the linux kernel? === lemonsCC [n=chris@c-69-137-135-80.hsd1.nj.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu [06:15] Unity: I don't mean to rude, but it's pretty much a "Duh" answer - yes, Ubuntu is better actually installed. [06:15] Unity: Assuming you have reasonable hardware. [06:15] k [06:15] I would think i'd want to install windows there :\ [06:15] feross: packets* [06:16] bleh, i'll figure out what i want to do regarding virtualization/emulation later [06:16] Unity: But... If you have to use windows most of the time (I use Ubuntu most of the time), you _may_ be better off with continuing to run it in vmware, rather than living with dualbooting. [06:16] link_36p: ok try iwlist ath0 scanning ... get the essid and I'll tell you what to put in your interfaces file [06:17] ChocoCid: Xen is currently unable to run windows, because it needs to modify the guest. [06:17] ah, gotcha [06:17] that's pointless then :P [06:17] I was actually trying to use wine, while installing a game everything got extremely slow.. my system locked up actually which I was amazed with so I rebooted to leave the process hang just before it would mention "grub" [06:17] ChocoCid: The magic with Xen is that it allows several OS's to run _natively_ on the hardware, without any emulation. [06:17] Is there anyway to install mplayer plugin for specific file types? [06:17] harrism, to repair grub you have to do the chroot bit with your harddrive installation. There should be help in the Ubuntu community documentation. [06:17] i do not need to emulate linux within linux [06:17] ChocoCid: Xen doesn't. [06:17] er, virtualize it [06:17] w/e [06:18] you mean, I can access my hd still? [06:18] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows <-- harrism, use that === jeremy_c [n=jeremy_c@cpe-71-74-145-210.neo.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:18] thanks a lot [06:18] i'll probably look more into qemu [06:18] this live cd is a life saver [06:18] anyone sucessfully installed Ubuntu in Parallels?

All programs and everything continues running like normal === SuperQ [n=ben@bar.cologeeks.net] has left #ubuntu [] [06:40] montablac: So, what project do you intend to work on? [06:41] mikeh_, how can you know that if the mouse and typing are slow?

[06:41] montablac: 2D, or 3D? === Lurkan [n=agsm@189.142.99.10] has joined #ubuntu [06:41] 2d,text based [06:41] mikeh_, you can tell that, if you get fast response in a console, but otherwise, that's just an unwaranted assumption [06:41] feross - yeah [06:41] montablac: What libs does it use? [06:41] just checking it out now [06:42] SeraVitae: ok that one should get you where you want to go :) [06:42] montablac: Could I have a look? === Sandman [i=The@Kitchener-HSE-ppp3574623.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu [06:42] sethk: when i finally get the cursor over to a program shortcut and click on it it starts up lightning fast and quits just as fast as if i just rebooted when the computer acts normal [06:42] ive got the game at school [06:42] well, i ran it, it says starting remote desktop in the tray, then nothing happens. [06:42] along with the source [06:42] it just dissapears. [06:42] mikeh_, that only means it has started responding again. it says nothing about why it was slow. [06:42] montablac: Wow, no backup! [06:42] sethk: it is just when the computer sits idle the only thing i see with super slow response is the cursor and the keyboard response [06:42] montablac: Which compiler are you using on windows? === suff0kate [n=suff0kat@24-247-142-36.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:42] SeraVitae: it might be in conflict with the current vncserver ... turn off the one you set up manually [06:42] oh no,we have 3 severs at school,i backed it up on those [06:43] mikeh_, ok, it _may_ be that the only slow thing is the cursor and the keyboard, but it may not. [06:43] g++ [06:43] whats a good mp3 audio cd burner [06:43] feross - sure [06:43] sethk: i agree. it appears that is so.

That compiler uses the standards quite well. [06:43] mikeh_, the reason I say that is that I suspect that you would have already solved your problem if your assumptions were correct. [06:43] montablac: msc does *wierd* things. [06:43] SeraVitae: also, when you make the changes there it turns on the service and it doesn't leave anything in the task panel. [06:44] feross - actually, i can't turn it off because my terminal won't open. "starting terminal....." and closes. like remote desktop. [06:44] i think i might reboot. === BluR [n=BluR@pool-71-243-96-117.bos.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [06:44] mikeh_, so don't assume. does it always slow up after a known amount of time? [06:44] its not directly about ubuntu linux but about ssh on ubuntu [06:44] haha [06:44] Errie SeraVitae [06:44] Uhhhhhhhhhh. i don't have a shutdown or reboot option now. [06:44] ehehe [06:44] just go to a tty [06:44] all my libs are the stuff newbs use [06:44] mikeh_, if you know that it _always_ slows up after, say, 15 minutes idle, then put it in console mode, wait 15 minutes, and see what happens when you start typing [06:44] finally ubuntu is installing yay :) [06:44] montablac: Infact, they have about 3 different standards of C++ now, and their docs never say which one. [06:44] yea sudo reboot will restart [06:44] whats a good recommended cd burner for .mp3 files? === mrmagee2759 [n=ubuntu@124-168-16-82.dyn.iinet.net.au] has left #ubuntu [] [06:45] i'd do that if i could get to a console [06:45] SeraVitae: doh! well you can go to terminal and "sudo reboot" right? [06:45] dam [06:45] k3b works good [06:45] they need to sort it out [06:45] Mr, I told you about using text mode four hours ago. if it is only installing now, it's because you waited four hours to try my suggestion :) [06:45] feross - the entire gnome session stopped responding [06:45] no [06:45] downloading [06:45] haha [06:45] montablac: classic C++, Managed C++, and C++/CLI, which they just call C++, much to the annoyance of the C++ standards committie. [06:45] dialup :( [06:45] u told me that 2 hours ago [06:45] Mr, I know, I'm teasing you [06:45] sethk i will and i will get back to you. [06:45] SeraVitae, just go to a tty and then login and type "sudo reboot" or "sudo shutdown -r now" [06:45] lol [06:45] SeraVitae: do ctr+alt+backspace [06:45] yeah that's what i did [06:45] lol [06:45] sethk: if it does what else should i try [06:45] im usin clasic [06:45] hey anyone good with ssh? [06:45] yeah, it freaked out a bit trying to stop the gnome dm [06:46] mikeh_, you mean if you don't see the slowdown? [06:46] Sandman: I'm aswsome with it [06:46] sethk: if i do see the slow down [06:46] what is the best program to use for playing dvds? [06:46] suff0kate: application? i use k3b [06:46] but i want to learn how to incorpate assembler into my code [06:46] lol ty [06:46] darkaura: ogle [06:46] mikeh_, I'd start looking at all the power save settings and options. [06:46] how can i connect to /dev/tty0 instead of /dev/pts/tty4 [06:46] mikeh_, they are known to be questionable in the first place, and, since it happens when the box is idle, ... === RandMC_ [i=kvirc@CPE-72-128-213-137.mn.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:46] montablac: There is practically little point in incorporating assembler into code. [06:46] im clueless [06:47] and I don't need that one libss or whatever file installed? [06:47] sethk: i have a boot option in grub to apm=off and no acpi [06:47] its for simple VGA programing [06:47] sethk that is noacpi [06:47] Sandman, why would you care about which one you connect to? [06:47] if i really like ubuntu im going to get it on my laptop isnt here a way to partition a harddrive without formatting it? [06:47] mikeh_, those don't always work, unfortunately. [06:47] montablac: Why do you want to do "simple VGA programming"? [06:47] mikeh_, for example, many boxes will still put the screen into power save mode, even if those are all turned off. [06:47] sethk: how else do i turn off APM [06:47] i want to have a counter strike server running in a tty so can easily connect and do direct commands [06:47] as an introduction to GFX programing [06:48] montablac: Just use SDL [06:48] mikeh_, rebuild the kernel with the options off, or possibly rmmod the modules, if they are modules and not compiled in. [06:48] sdl? [06:48] montablac: GFX programming is all about blits and meshes. [06:48] and what should I install for divx window media realplayer quick time and such playback? [06:48] sethk_, how do i rmmod the modules. I am relatively new at this [06:48] mikeh_, we don't really have any data saying it is a power save problem, so let's try to get more data first. [06:48] montablac: No need to delve into the guts of the hardware. === Alakazam [n=Alakazam@cpe-68-203-142-78.houston.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [06:48] hehe [06:48] montablac: SDL is a 2D graphics library, very suitable for games. [06:48] sethk: alright i will get back to ya [06:48] mikeh_, lsmod will show you what modules are loaded. you can remove a module using the command rmmod module_name [06:48] where can i learn this? [06:49] montablac: If you want 3D, try OpenGL. [06:49] na [06:49] mikeh_, you do that at a command prompt, and you have to be root to insert or remove modules. [06:49] montablac, i also should mention there are already open source game engines ... no need to learn .. [06:49] 2D first,then 3D [06:49] montablac: 2D is wholly different to 3D ;) [06:49] open source games engines are good,but i want to learn programing [06:49] i know [06:50] montablac, you mean with game engines you don't need to program ? [06:50] montablac: Check out pyGame, I have never used it, but it seems to be quite good. [06:50] sethk: which module would it be [06:50] but the guts are 2D is easer [06:50] montablac: Incorrect. [06:50] I'm going to leave IRC to remove xubuntu-desktop packages and as much of kubuntu-desktop as possible enough to allow kopete to run [06:50] oh?

[08:04] daviey: nope. ubuntu-desktop is a meta package... unless oyu installed it with aptitude, then depending, itll ask [08:04] daviey: AMD is, yes. But k7 can use 686 kernels, and can use 386 kernels too. [08:04] hanx [08:04] t [08:04] My CD is much faster than my net connection, so apt-get (from a server somewhere) is going to take forever (>400MB). I wanted to use the CD as the repository to do the install, but want it to all be copasetic(?) with the existing distro. This is just over the edge of my knowledge/understanding as a linux newbie. [08:04] Arafangion: yeah, but if they have it, it's better than nothing. debs are pretty simple, whereas dpkg-scanpackages is more difficult. [08:05] jimFL: grab the alternate ISO and you can use that as a repository [08:05] daviey .. similar thing here: am installing ubuntu onto two systems: intel i810 800MHz & AMD64 3800 x2 (am geting my exercise tonight) [08:05] daviey: you'll need to remove x-window-system and xorg-core or xorg-common and some other stuff... packages.ubuntu.com may have a list of everything x-related [08:05] xserver-xorg might just be enough. [08:05] daviey: if you remove some low level x thing, most other stuff probably depends on it ;) [08:05] Gabby_Hayes: bet you were cleaver enough to have them in the same room eh? I gotta run upstairs and down [08:06] jimFL, you'll be getting moderately old stuff. You will end up upgrading a fair fraction of it over the 'net anyway [08:06] jimFL: man apt-cdrom [08:06] jimFL, not sure if you'll save very much. [08:06] daviey: yes, but you can replace the kernel. 686 works fine, you just don't get the same boost. [08:06] OK - I will have to defer the install until I get to a higher BW. connection to grab the alternate. Dang! I should have d/l'd them all. [08:06] dragonfyre13: For desktops, I'm torn between Debian and Ubuntu, actually - Debian can have rather nice DVD's. [08:06] jimFL: apt-cdrom. there's an ubuntu site for it too. [08:06] I don't quite get the kernel issue. [08:06] jimFL: you'll have to download the alternate ISO (if you don't already have it) 700mb. It can install a GUI-less server version as well. [08:06] yes, daviey .. I'm not that athletic at my age. [08:07] jimFL, what kernel issue? [08:07] dragonfyre13: And since debian is slow to change, those can stay reaosnably up-to-date for quite a while. :) [08:07] Arafangion: I go with gentoo and Ubuntu.

Is there anyway I can only do upgrade without lossing my existing data? [08:12] Za1: yes, but you have to upgrade through breezy first. [08:12] Za1, yes, but ordinarily that's done from the 'net, rather than from the cd [08:12] Az1: why don't you just apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade? [08:13] anybody know how to remove quotas on the home folder? [08:13] Za1: and, if you're doing it via the CDs, grab the alternate dapper one, not the desktop.

[08:14] Am i right in saying that XDMCP login will connect to a remote 'X' - allow me a full working machine and run processes on the 'server' machine. Ie have a powerfull backend and login from an old pc, for a new pc feel? [08:14] hmm- sounds like i better backup and nuke my machine and install the latest will be the best solutions. thanks guys for your wonderful feeback. you bunch are always a helpful. [08:15] Za1: right, except you won't be able to order a breezy CD, I don't think. And you won't be able to order a Dapper Alternate CD. Unless you're ordering them somewhere besides shipit [08:15] Za1 .. for that little amount of ram, use more than one swap, and if you have two HDs, put a swap on each HD. easier on your OS with two swaps and little ram. [08:15] i'd say to backup /etc and /home .. and then just do a clean install or (messily) overinstall [08:15] Flannel: it was horribly unpolished, and crashed more than half of the computers I tried it on.

We can continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like, this is not the place. [08:16] dragonfyre13, is it experimentally official, or officially experimental?

[08:20] sethk: that admin console doesn't mount the filesystem AFAIK; that's why your /etc/fstab says "defaults,errors=remount-ro" for the options on the root fs. So you can repair it. [08:20] mikeh_, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /var/log/messages. do ls -ltr /var/log and check logs which haave changed most recently [08:20] ArrenLex: done that. now it says reiser_open : the superblock cnnot be found on /dev/hdc. says something about the partition table might be recked and to use option --rebuild-sb. should i type fsck --rebuild-sb?

[08:22] slow down i just installed ubuntu today [08:22] Im a complete noob lol [08:23] how do i run it [08:23] sethk: the reason you can't fsck a mounted filesystem is because the inodes are in use and the counts are wrong and all these things, and it closes files which can't be closed because they are open and corrupts everything. If you mount a filesystem readonly, it's still in virgin state. You can't fix a filesystem if you can't read it; the livecd mounts it readonly anyway. [08:23] daviey: that's the idea. there can always be some problems, but in a nutshell, yes. [08:23] double clicked on ot [08:23] it* [08:23] daviey: yup you can.

[08:32] sethk: i am going to try the -386 kernel to see if it still does it [08:32] can anyone tell me how i uninstall a program which i installed with the binary? please pm me...thanks [08:33] reverie, that's a hardware issue. [08:33] mikeh_, good idea [08:33] phonics, allright. now what does gdm do? what error message does it give you? [08:33] Robin1931: sudo apt-get remove [08:33] reverie: looking. [08:33] sethk, it onlydoes this when i try install linux [08:33] !bugreport [08:33] Sorry, I don't know anything about bugreport - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi [08:33] anyone know which debootstrap to use, debootstrap or debootstrap-udeb [08:33] even if i'm not in X, and I stop the X session completely it still hangs randomly [08:33] Knoppix runs just great [08:34] this is during post, during use, what? [08:34] reverie: this is during post, during use, what? [08:34] ArrenLex, actually I think he's running something that was linked against a different arch, or a different path. remember that the library path can be compiled into the running binary [08:34] the kernel error is during use === se7enworth [n=graeme@vc-196-207-41-251.3g.vodacom.co.za] has joined #ubuntu [08:34] what is with this error? Error activating XKB configuration. [08:34] after i get this kernel issue\, sometimes, my box will not post when i reboot [08:34] holycow, it's not that GDM gives me an error, it's that if I do ctrl-alt-backspace i go to the GDM login and my gnome apps stay alive [08:34] my hardware is fine [08:34] this only seems to happen with dapper [08:34] ArrenLex, but you are probably correct, rereading what he said. [08:34] holycow, this makes logging in again problematic :) [08:34] reverie: use synaptic and reinstall the kernel. That worked for me way back when. [08:34] i've tried 64bit (its a 64bit cpu) [08:34] phonics, *umm* [08:34] sethk: exactly, I think he's running a 32-bit mupen on a 64-bit system, which means his 32-bit mupen is looking for a 32-bit libsdl and finding a 64-bit it can't handle, causing that error. [08:35] hi. I put that line into fstab and did a reboot but still nothing mounted in /media [08:35] no your gnome apps don't stay alive [08:35] other than cd roms of course [08:35] infat === dfgas [n=dfgas@adsl-68-248-234-201.dsl.milwwi.ameritech.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:35] dragonfyre13, I can barely get into the box let alone get into aptitute === _sun [n=kimkisun@58.227.104.42] has joined #ubuntu [08:35] infact you that is exactly what is supposed to happen, restart x and bring you back to the login screen [08:35] holycow, huh? [08:35] how can i determine where $JAVA_HOME is? [08:35] phonics, I'm not quite sure what you mean by gnome apps staying alive. going to the gdm login when you press control-alt-backspace is exactly what is supposed to happen. [08:35] printK: that didn't work, i didn't install it using any package manager [08:35] are there known issues with nforce cfhipsets? [08:35] phonics, its impossible for gnome apps to stay alive, it doesn't happen [08:35] ArrenLex: sethk: wait, he's emulating a 32 bit system, to emulate a 64 bit system, all on a 64 bit system to begin with? That's just wrong. [08:35] holycow, sethk, correct, but they are still alive in the old session [08:35] its an nfroce 3 250 chipset === Nothing_About [n=Mewbie@203.122.107.202] has joined #ubuntu [08:35] Robin1931: oh well then you gotta remove it yourself [08:36] dragonfyre13, yes, [08:36] Hey [08:36] reverie: try an earlier kernel. Is it a fresh install? [08:36] phonics, not possible, the session is destroyed upon key command [08:36] can anyone help me out with a problem [08:36] holycow, tell that to my "ps x" [08:36] gpu is a geforce 6800gt [08:36] printk: how do u do that exactly? [08:36] dragonfyre13, fresh install [08:36] OK im trying to install ubuntu [08:36] holycow, that's what I thought too! [08:36] Robin1931: *shrugs* whereever you intalled it to, i guess rm it? :) [08:36] dragonfyre13, like, the install process hangs just after choosing language [08:36] on my lame laptop [08:36] dragonfyre: I couldn't call a Nintendo64 a "64-bit system" without laughing. Could you? =P [08:36] 700mhz and 128 mb ram [08:36] so what happens when you try to log in? [08:36] reverie: ah. [08:36] i had to use the DVD version of dapper to do a text only install [08:36] anybody got any other suggestions about mounting hda1 pls? [08:36] problem is [08:36] ntfs volume? [08:37] !enter [08:37] Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying. [08:37] i didnt know it goes into live cd mode [08:37] holycow, panel fails to start, settings act weird, none of the panel applets work... [08:37] reverie, try getting into the box in text mode, and doing dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [08:37] reverie: ah. You've tried doing the integrity check, and burning a new disk and stuff right? [08:37] printk: i searched my drive for 'firefox' and deleted the dir it found but firefox will still run [08:37] reverie: cause you're looking at a kernel error. [08:37] Nothing_About: you want the alternate ISO, not the desktop [08:37] Nothing_About .. do you see an "install" icon on the desktop? [08:37] ArrenLex: sorry to bug, but reiserfsck --rebuild-sb is asking me questions and i don't know answers i.e. enter block size??? do i just use defaults? [08:37] do voodoo cards works in linux? (still) [08:37] yeh [08:37] problem is [08:37] dragonfyre13, yep, i had origional cds from shippiit [08:37] dfgas: yes. [08:37] phonics, my guesstimate is that you borked something and don't realize it ... at this point i personally would decide to reinstall and get the system back to a nice even playing ground. [08:37] holycow, right now i'm using console login so the 3-key-salute can mean something again :) [08:37] it is still loading [08:37] this happens on the 32bit and 64bit versions of Ubuntu and Kubuntu [08:38] and it has cut out my monitor [08:38] tracking something like that down would take more work than its worth imho [08:38] captine: I don't know anything about reiserfs. I don't want to say anything for fear of steering you wrong. Sorry. = / [08:38] and now i have no signal [08:38] holycow, i've only had it installed for like 3 weeks [08:38] reverie: ok, and you tried the media check function on the CD? [08:38] captine, reiserfs is unstable when used as a root file system. [08:38] Nothing_About: You want the alternate CD, its a nice textmode installer, etc === Dyegov [n=juan@cable201-233-86-147.epm.net.co] has joined #ubuntu [08:38] dragonfyre13, yep [08:38] i actually have ctrlaltdel in metacity set to bring up gnome-system-manager [08:38] ArrenLex: cool. shot :) [08:38] Robin1931: i suggest getting support through firefox themselves. But if you say firefox is stilling running it's in your $PATH. SO I'd check /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin to start with [08:38] captine, best to not use it that way (or not use it at all) [08:38] Ummm [08:38] dragonfyre13, cool, its going in my newer server i am getting [08:38] phonics, yeah well, you can have it installed for 3 minutes and still do something to bork it, just a suggestion anyway [08:38] reverie: I got a bad burn once, from shipit, so... [08:38] yeh problem i dont know what to do [08:38] Anyone able to help with Reiserfsck??? [08:38] I still been trying to run it [08:38] dfgas: sounds good! [08:38] since its still loading the live cd [08:38] holycow, i totally agree with the too much effort analysis :) [08:38] type "sudo chmod +x " thne type "./ and my monitor has no signal [08:38] should i leave it [08:38] for script file i put file.ss [08:38] ? [08:38] Robin: what problem are you having with firefox? [08:38] and maybe it will start working [08:38] printk: i'll have a look in those dirs, tnank you [08:39] reverie: are you doing anything screwy, hardware wise? [08:39] Mr: whatever the name of the script is === JDStone2 [n=JDStone@adsl-68-126-63-190.dsl.irvnca.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:39] or do something else [08:39] Nothing_About: just power down, not going to break anyting ;) [08:39] thx you guys are a great help [08:39] Nothing_About: only thing to do is to turn it off === se7enworth [n=graeme@vc-196-207-41-251.3g.vodacom.co.za] has left #ubuntu [] [08:39] sethk: problem is, my machine was running slackware. the drive that is in reiser format is my home drive, with all doc's etc [08:39] I need someone to help me with my resolution, it's only 640x480 :( [08:39] ok [08:39] holycow, but part of the reason I even use linux is to track down problems like this and make sure nobody else gets rammed by them === Marsmensch [n=daniel@dslb-084-056-111-195.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:39] dragonfyre13, yeah, ive tired 4 cds here, and the same cds have installed fine on other machines [08:39] Nothing_About .. reboot, and choose a text install [08:39] is there a way i can install the linux without going to live cd [08:39] !tell Dyegov about fixres [08:39] text install [08:39] phonics, ditto, i love being able to solve problems [08:39] Nothing_About: alternate ISO [08:39] captine, at this point, you have to recover it, granted. afterwards, it would be a good idea to ditch it. [08:39] reverie: hmmmmm. [08:39] captine, you have to say yes to all the questions, normally. [08:39] holycow, so how do these friggin processes stay alive??? :( [08:39] captine, if you want to ask about a specific prompt, go ahead. [08:40] sethk: what about the block size thing? [08:40] phonics, ironically, because everything is free reinstalling just is easier on linux than on certain other platforms [08:40] ok well is there any commands i must type while in text install [08:40] to start things up [08:40] holycow, so true === Lilandra [n=lilandra@241-10.greendottt.net] has joined #ubuntu [08:40] because im very new to the linux world [08:40] captine, sorry, I didn't see it, can you write it again? [08:40] and not sure on how to install linux [08:40] Nothing_About: you'll have to hit enter at the beginning, because there are different install types [08:40] reverie: OK, well as far as hardware, the only thing that the CD is touching should be the CD, RAM, and the display. No hard drive, or anything else. [08:40] ok [08:40] phonics, well i don't thinkt hey stay alive i think they get restarted in the background along with gdm and x === TWiSTEDSO [n=twisteds@83.209.35.64] has joined #ubuntu [08:40] Nothing_About ... the CD will have choices [08:40] Hi all [08:40] Nothing_About, when you choose the text mode install, it will prompt you [08:40] yes ive seen [08:40] !info python-apt [08:40] reverie: do a ram check, though you've probably already done one, and let it run a few times through. [08:40] dragonfyre13, yeah [08:40] python-apt: Python interface to libapt-pkg. In component main, is optional. Version 0.6.16.2ubuntu8 (dapper), package size 15 kB, installed size 116 kB [08:41] phonics, but i've not really hacked around that kinda thing a lot so hard to tell. gnome devs might be able to give more detailed info [08:41] printk: there was a firefox file in /usr/bin/ :) [08:41] ok so turn off my laptop [08:41] and start install again [08:41] What are the advantages of booting up in safe graphics mode? [08:41] sethk: it is asking me what block size to use (after i typed reiserfsck --rebuild-sb). It has [4096] as a recommendation [08:41] Nothing_About: it walks you through it pretty well. And, worst case is you did something wrong, and you can fix it, or install again ;) Most people reinstall after a month once theyve figured stuff out, to undo all the mistakes ;) [08:41] dragonfyre13, ran memtest86 , all fine for about 10 passes [08:41] phonics, just because you see them doesn't meen they haven't restarted [08:41] reverie: hmmmmmm. [08:41] dragonfyre13, also this ONLY ever happens with Dapper [08:41] firefox seems to be gone, thank you :D [08:41] Tru7h: none of your gnome startup stuff is run, if you have a bad script or whatnot [08:41] Robin1931: np [08:41] phonics, specifically, which processes stay alive? [08:41] hi all , i want to run higher resolution than 1024 , how do i add more modes ? [08:41] ok [08:41] its not working [08:41] so when i have the menu pop up [08:41] before install [08:41] Is there a PPC linux/ubuntu specific channel? [08:41] i press a key [08:41] dragonfyre13, so i'm guessing its the kernel release conflicts with some hardware, i even tried booting the cd without having my tv card, sndcard and nic installed [08:41] to stop count down [08:41] Mr: what's not working about it? what kind of script is this? [08:42] TWiSTEDSO: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and add more resolutions. Or else edit your /etc/x11/xorg.conf and add them manually. [08:42] then i choose text install [08:42] Tru7h ... you can get what packages or drivers you need installed, then go to a regular mode. === atoponce [i=aaron@gateway/gpg-tor/key-0xFC04088F] has joined #ubuntu [08:42] and follow the prompts [08:42] TWiStEDSO: does your monitor support higher modes? [08:42] Mr, give us some context, look at the rate questions fly about here. [08:42] Nothing_About: no, no. this is an entire other disk, Alternate ISO, you have the Desktop ISO [08:42] holycow, sethk, all of them seem to - bonobo-activation, gnome-* etc [08:42] Mr: you might need to seek help from the authors of lampp... what is lampp... I don't think it's in ubuntu [08:42] ok [08:42] phonics, that's not necessarily wrong [08:42] so i cant go into desktop iso and install in text mode [08:42] holycow, sethk, I haven't been rigorous enough to track tho [08:42] dragonfyre13, it just behaves weirdly, i did get into X a few times after the installation went through eventually, i try run something simple like xterm or whatever, and it just dissapears [08:42] reverie: file a bug report is the only thing I can think of. It's not a hardware issue, it's a kernel issue. It's trying to write to a non-existant area. Does this only happen on the live CD, or with the text based installer? [08:42] anybody? [08:42] Nothing_About: correct. the desktop ISO is a liveCd primarily [08:42] phonics, it's normal for the corba layer and other middleware to continue to run. [08:42] Lilandra: nope, this is it. [08:43] oh ok [08:43] ok [08:43] sethk, what??? aren't the child procs? [08:43] Wow, lots of people are talking today. My head hurts from trying to keep up. === Robin1931 [n=robin@84-12-195-111.dyn.gotadsl.co.uk] has left #ubuntu [] [08:43] sethk, s/the/they [08:43] dragonfyre13, the text based installer seems to install with no errors [08:43] does anybody know about appletouch? [08:43] Nothing_About: at the boot prompt try safe mode === shmho [n=shmho@134.75.55.113] has joined #ubuntu [08:43] but if i download the alternate iso , will i have any problems with my monitor while install [08:43] phonics, not all, no. what problem do you think these processes are causing? [08:43] phonics, actually no they aren't [08:43] reverie: It's a liveCD kernel issue. [08:43] what safe graphical mode [08:43] Lilandra: you can run it using the synaptics touchpad driver, but it will have only basic functionality. [08:43] Nothing_About: probably not, no. [08:43] sudo chmod ./home/jones/desktop/lampp is what i put and it says no such file or dir [08:43] dragonfyre13, but the kernel dapper boots with after the installer isn't the livecd kernel surely? [08:43] ok [08:44] how about the dragging of the cursor? can i fix that? [08:44] holycow, sethk you guys are rocking my world. [08:44] Nothing_About: From what they've just told me, it's used for installing drivers and such while avoiding bad scripts. [08:44] how much Ram does this linux require [08:44] Mr: have you read the lamp howto page? [08:44] Mr: no no that's wrong [08:44] Nothing_About: you actually might want to consider xubuntu, instead of ubuntu [08:44] holycow, sethk, the problem is that I never have a normal session again, i have to restart gdm [08:44] Lilandra: have you googled? [08:44] Nothing_About .. ubuntu at it's first graphics screen will have about 4-5 menus choices ... pick safe mode, or the text mode [08:44] yes but they're confusing [08:44] i mean i'm confused. [08:44] reverie: Sorry, I meant Default kernel issue. The kernel that the livecd boots with is the same one that it installs initially, but just recompiled for livecd use. [08:44] lol === Dyegov [n=juan@cable201-233-86-147.epm.net.co] has joined #ubuntu [08:44] so whats the difference with xubuntu and ubuntu ? [08:44] !test again [08:44] Failed again. [08:44] and i'm not too sure what i'm confused about. [08:44] Mr: don't actually use < > in the file name unless it's called and no need to use ./ < notice the period. The period is only if you're in the present working directory. If you supply the full path /home/blah/blah then that's all you type to run it [08:45] dragonfyre13, ah ok [08:45] Lilandra: what are you confused by? If you give us a link to a tutorial, we might be able to explain it. [08:45] xubuntu uses XCFE instead of GNOME [08:45] i will try again and come back with specific answers [08:45] phonics, the problem in tracking down the root of your issue is that you need to track back to a mysterious something that happened to your setup. [08:45] brb [08:45] Nothing_About: xfce instead of gnome, it's more lightweight. (the window manager, the main GUI thing) [08:45] need to check on laptop [08:45] I need to fix my resolution because it's 680x460 and what the bot told me didn't work :( [08:45] basically, the window manager isn't as large so it'll take less memory to run [08:45] ArrenLex: I will try again and see where I get stopped [08:45] i say stop worrying and reinstall. if it happens again you will have a base experience to further track it down if it happens again [08:45] dragonfyre13, if its any help, the thing that made my box not post after it hung was when i tried booting with nolapic noapic [08:45] Dyegov: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [08:45] holycow, well, i haven't done too much outside of aptitude tho, so that shouldn't be *too* hard [08:45] !info ifrename [08:45] ifrename: Rename network interfaces based on various static criteria.

[08:46] it says go to linux shell and login as the system admin root where that at? [08:46] Hey pals, I just rebooted my server and now mysql has the error "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (111)" I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 and mysql-4.1 [08:46] reverie: it's conflicting with your hardware in some way give the output of dmesg on the other linux distro on the machine with the bugreport, as well as what you just told me.

[08:46] Mr, there is no root in ubuntu first so thats one bit of the confusion [08:46] sethk, holycow should I take this to #gnome?

[08:47] holycow, sethk or is this an ubuntu issue? [08:47] Mr, third instead of logging in as root just type sudo before every command,that will execute it as root [08:47] dragonfyre13, thanks though, i appreciate the effort ;) [08:47] reverie: you could install it, and then grab the kernel off on the other distro, then just do a replace. [08:47] Mr: Ubuntu has a nice howto on installing LAMP, and I'm sure there's one on Perl, that should do it for you, right? [08:47] !tell Mr about lamp [08:47] well there is root in ubuntu, just no password set by default [08:47] if i could just get the box stable enough to upgrade the kerenel i think that would help [08:47] phonics, no i really think this is a phonics issue ... i don't really get why you want to spend time tracking down something you did :) [08:47] the kernel off the ubuntu repo that is.

If you see two entries, you're using two processors. [08:50] mikeh: if you only see one, install an -smp kernel. [08:50] but the live cd started insted of an option where i can choose to install ubuntu without going into live cd mode [08:50] wow [08:50] the live cd is supposed to start up [08:50] ChocoCid: xubuntu is nice. I'd recommend it even to someone who had a mid powered system.

[08:51] Mr, *ummm* i told you [08:51] Mr, there is NO NEED for root [08:51] Half hour and counting, that is.

If you're going to ask a question pay attention. Many people told you many times to use sudo before the command [08:52] Nothing_About, download the alternate cd and use the other installer [08:53] dream: yea, there should be [08:53] Nothing_About, alternate cd has the old di installer, its fantastic, although ugly [08:53] damn [08:53] i dont see it in dapper [08:53] still wont post [08:53] guaranteed to install on your machine provided it composed of supported hardware components [08:53] kmitch, are you on dapper?

[08:54] Nothing_About: Scratch that, I thought you said "can" not "can't". [08:54] Mr: the extension of the shell script depends on the shell it's using. for example bourne or bash shell use .sh extension. [08:54] ok [08:54] kmitch, there is no screensaver on dapper [08:54] Nothing_About: You just need to use the alternate installer.

[09:37] klos ok [09:37] rafb.net/paste [09:37] holger, but seriously, there's some kernel issue because this has only happened to be with dapper [09:37] (imo) [09:37] Arafangion, oh me too. are you a coder by trade or? [09:37] holycow: I'm studying Software Engineering, I graduate next year.

Shares locally, within /home/ work fine, but I am trying to share folders that exist on an external USB 2.0 hard disk and it keeps coming back as "inaccessible" every time I try.

[09:40] klos, I already did that heh. [09:40] can anyone confirm 3d acceleratio nsupport for windows guests under vmware? [09:40] holycow: afaik, vmware does support 3d accel (partially) [09:40] mztriz, are oyu in another network to query doenst work here [09:40] drewzf, i would yes, infact i would use separate hard drives. games take up a lot of room these days [09:40] Arafangion, ah really? enough to play games? === haich [n=haich@11.Red-83-40-116.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu [09:40] I have a very capable system. 2GB RAM, dual core AMD 4600+ [09:40] holycow: It's one of the major technical advantages over qemu + kqemu. (VMware's other advantage is that it's much more polished) [09:40] the live cd loads and at the stage of loading kernal gets ome kind of hdc command not ready or something === tuopppi [n=tuomas@bb-81-175-152-111.dsl.phnet.fi] has joined #ubuntu [09:40] and then loads normaly [09:41] thanks orbin [09:41] after that it does the system check or something [09:41] holycow: My 1.3 GHz system has trouble with many 3D games, I don't think vmware has a chance regardless of 3d accel. [09:41] I have seperate HDD's, my Ubuntu install is on a 320GB SATA, Windows is on a 170GB nothing-special Maxtor.

[09:41] there isn't such a thing as a slow computer any more imho except for certain specific tasks [09:41] actually [09:41] holycow: But they all play nethack rather nicely :) [09:41] Well, can I configure grub to select a specific Windows install from my secondary HDD? === nailbags [i=n3il@creep.bur.st] has left #ubuntu [] [09:41] imho if it wasn't for games people would of stopped upgrading after 1 ghz cpus i think [09:42] nah [09:42] drewzf, yes [09:42] holycow, How? #grub? [09:42] and then Starts to load ubuntu , upon the ubuntu splash screen popup it loads all the stuff then it gets stuck loading , !! Nautilus !! and i dont know what do to but turn off my pc . [09:42] So can anyone tell me what Nautilus is [09:42] drewzf, the trick is to install windows first on its own hd ... windows always wants to be on c: [09:42] holycow: It still surprises me that many people, expecially windows users, obsess about CPU performance, and still just pack 512MB or so of RAM into the system. [09:42] file manager [09:42] could not open default font 'fixed' <-- anyone know a fix? === takedown [n=takedown@81.222.178.17] has joined #ubuntu === phaero [n=phaero@h73n2fls31o891.telia.com] has joined #ubuntu [09:43] Arafangion, right :P [09:43] Does anyone have any ideas [09:43] or could plz tell me what Nautilus is ? [09:43] holycow: Especially with .NET and Java being so ram heavy (And pathetically pathetic with swap) [09:43] holycow, Windows has been installed first on it's own HDD, but my 1st install is my Vista beta (crap) and I'd prefer to select XP without deleting Vista. [09:43] Nothing_about - Check your PM === |chris3| [n=asdfsdf@ip70-178-13-60.ks.ks.cox.net] has left #ubuntu [] [09:43] Nothing_about: Nautilus is Nautilus. I hear that it's supposed to be some kind of file manager, but who knows what it really is. [09:43] drewzf, how's vista [09:44] whats new [09:44] klos, Very sexy. Needs a lot of work. [09:44] ok so how do i check my pm [09:44] Not stable yet, sadly. [09:44] drewzf, you can, grub needs to installed as the bootloader on that sector instead of the windows bootloader ... then you tell grub where everything is [09:44] looks better than xgl [09:44] ? [09:44] And a very large number of games can cause very large problems. [09:44] IMHO, yes. [09:44] Nothing_about - if you press ALT and F2 together and type in nautilus, it will open and you can see what it is. You will kick you will kick yourself! :) [09:44] and all im trying to do is going into live cd , and install ubuntu from the desktop [09:44] :P [09:44] drewzf: The #winehq folks are saying that soon, they will be more compatible than windows itself. [09:44] I doubt it. [09:45] drewzf: Well, vista doesn't support DX9 [09:45] is #winehq Cedega or WINE? [09:45] drewzf, an easy way to do it without learning grub is to reinstall ubuntu on the second hd, ubuntu installer will recognize the windows partitions ... so you tell ubuntu to install to hd grub to install to boot sector on other hd and voila [09:45] Arafangion, there are hacks.

[10:38] holycow: yea i use gnome + xfce sometimes [10:39] siimo, i have a few soccer moms happily installing software on it and managing printers and things like that [10:39] i think he means all the options are RPMs [10:39] guys... anyone know how to fix gnome if it appears to be completely broken [10:39] ghostshadow189: ah ok, to make it one panel just right click on one of them and go to properties. Then change the size to as big as you want [10:39] siimo, cool [10:39] is it even uninsteallable? [10:39] BHSPitLappy, yes - 3 of them. One is the actual program and 2 are License Servers/Programs [10:39] the reason microsoft is #1 is that windows is better as a desktop os [10:39] josh : oh , i'll try [10:39] AlexC, "sudo alien -d nameofrpm.rpm" === mendred [n=mendred@59.93.88.82] has joined #ubuntu [10:39] thatGuy_, depends on what you mean by broken ... describe the problem and we will try to fix it [10:39] peace-keeper, please don't be a troll =) [10:39] yeah, it's uninstallable, you can do sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [10:39] peace-keeper: Incorrect. [10:39] thatGuy_, delete your gnome configs === AVVAX [n=toxa@212.154.128.222] has joined #ubuntu [10:39] AlexC, then you can double click the new ones [10:39] peace-keeper, why are you here then?

[10:40] thatGuy_, prolly an error in one of the gnome configs [10:40] peace-keeper: The reason why MS is #1 is because it's installed by default on every single system, due to various nefarious monopolistic practices that has brought them to court several times. [10:40] fyrestrtr, absolutely [10:40] he WANTS to pay through the nose for a worse system [10:40] ChocoCid, i agree with you 100% [10:40] fyrestrtr, Autodesk, well Alias - only did RPMs for it [10:40] lol.. there's like a million of those right? [10:40] ChocoCid, peace-keeper Arafangion: take of-topic discussions elsewhere [10:40] so what do you use ChocoCid? gnome or kde [10:40] thatGuy_, have you tried restarting?
